The Question #32

Against a blood-red sky churning with dark smoke, the faceless Question stands center-cover in military fatigues and a white scarf, flanked by armed soldiers in blue helmets — an image that speaks directly to this issue's title, "The Peacemaker." Denys Cowan's cover art carries a raw, unsettling tension, with the Question's blank visage looming above the armed figures in a way that feels anything but reassuring. The O'Neil–Cowan–Jones team was doing some of the most thoughtful, mature-readers work in mainstream comics in 1989, and this issue looks to be no exception.
